  • I don't think it's a fair comparison. The greatest aspect of e-ink screens is not giving strain to the eyes. Looking at a greyscale phone will just have the downsides of both worlds.

  • I assumed a x64. Debian (the distro mx linux is based on) offers multiarch support, so i just had to enable it by running:

     
        
    sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
    sudo apt update
    
      

    Then, to install 32-bit firefox, I first uninstalled it and then installed the 32-bit version:

     
        
    sudo apt remove firefox-esr  
    sudo apt install firefox-esr:i386
    
      

    With the standard 64 bit version, the browser would struggle with just 2 or 3 tabs, and with the 32 bit version, she can use like 10 tabs without problems

  • Or I could recycle it

    Could you really? E-waste recycling is a great lie made so that people don't get remorse over throwing away their devices. Electronics are too complex, diverse and full of toxic stiff to be property recycled.

    If anyone wants to dive more into this, there has been some projects where people from higher income countries put tracking devices inside e-waste before sending to "recycling", to find out where they end up. Spoiler: in poorer countries, to either be scattered around, thrown into a landfill, or be scavenged by underpaid people without any protection equipment.

  • Uber has a pwa available. Would it help you? At least it would minimize privacy invasion.

  • disable CPU hogs and file indexing etc.

    Do you have some tips for that?

  • There are plenty of distros for very low end pcs, but they tend to require more tech skills to use. I have experience with a friend in a similar situation. I installed with mx linux for her and she is liking it. The performance is pretty reasonable and it comes with various tools that make it easier for people with less tech skills. The only extra thing I did was install the 32 bit version of firefox, because it makes a huge difference in low ram devices.

  • I believe jpeg xl allows lossless conversion from common jpeg

  • And uwuntu!

  • That means they support Hannah Montana Linux

  • The vpn use case is mostly when you have an internet provider that is actively monitoring you or accessing blocked content

  • Never underestimate the network effect and how reluctant people are to move to another social network. The masses just follow the crowd, so every big account moving out from there helps take more users away.

  • The real travel are the friends we make along the way

  • Needs some deepfry

  • If Zuckerberg ever does philanthropy, it will be in a dystopian format where you need to hand over all your personal data to receive the benefits

  • Unfortunately, a lot of people. Probably not so many here on Lemmy but a lot of people. And I even know a couple of them irl :(

  • And the pollution isn't a problem, because the strong winds generated will dissipate it away.

    Oh, and the entire system must be ai-based

  • And libreoffice, and stop using copilot or game pass or any of their services

  • Thank you for the suggestion

  • I already used my proton email as contact method on some published stuff that I can't modify. Do you have some tips for that situation, or am I stuck now?
